Here's a couple from eBay...
Typical eBay CAI w/ a K&N Filter -- Click here.
Slightly Cheaper one on eBay, but with a cheap filter -- Click here.
All of the ones on eBay are essentially the same. Just make sure they come with all of the silicone adapters... If you have to, ask the seller to make sure.
K&N Typhoon Intake on eBay - Alot more expensive, but it's name brand -- Click here.
AEM Short Ram Intake -- Click here.
Hope this helps ya'. There are plenty out there to choose from, just gotta' look.

well to keep from starting another 'why the ebay owns other intakes'

....long story short, I had the ebay intake for about a year and a half. the metal piping was very thin, the couplers cracked after a year and i had to duck tape it in place until I could afford the AEM a couple months later. the hole for the sensor was huge, we had to use electircal tape to hold it in the pipe. on top of that, after a year of it getting so hot (the piping) the electrical tape was completely melted all over the intake. the filter sucked, just in general the way it was made was not very well at all IMO. The clamps wouldnt stay clamped and the intake litterally kept falling apart. every day Id have to pop the hood and tighten all the clamps up, only to do it again later that day or the next day at the latest. No straight bellows tube replacement either.
the AEM, on the other hand was a world of difference. Bolted right up. very well made couplers and clamps, the piping is a little thicker, the sensor fits right in that little hole for it perfectly and doesnt fall out. and best of all I dont have to worry about if its falling apart under my hood. sure it cost me like $200 (actually got it on ebay) but its a real AEM and it was well worth the money. I wish I wouldve spent it in the first place rather than going the cheaper route and getting a ebay special.
There are others that will arugue that they are just as good, but im giving you my honest opinion based on my experience. Its worth the extra money you spend to have peace of mind.
The iceman is nice too, I hear, but now its going to be hard to find since its discontinued now.
